  1. Was rigged shock to 76% on the opening and had to pass a second xebec in a slalom down and then finally upwind, was a good spread. Silly positional spawn is silly WYSIWYG RoE please.
  2. We got some one the commonwealth xebecs the same day we want to help jamaica when I escaped your encirclement in my privateer. I think people want battles to last 15 minutes and can't be arsed for 90 minutes.
  3. You are right. We should have a skill meter. I said OW encounters. Simple, direct. Done. BTW...What attitude ? 😮 You reading my words with your voice again ? Sorry man, I can't be blamed for your brain.
  4. Praying for prey still works, even without the button.
  5. Was not test. Was OW encounters, every single one xebec we sunk. Several around Robras and Batabano, one of them was a 2v2 princes versus xebecs, both sunk. Again same spot a 2v2, one xebec sunk and other escaped. Others in Jamaica, bracketing with 7th and 6th rates while square riggers acted cheer leaders. Some others in Bahamas and US coast and Mosquito Coasts. Last one was in patrol zone with leaks and full HP, 8 leaks, and 30 seconds later was under. They are not unbeatable but they are way more resilient than they should be. Actually I think overall we killed more Xebecs than Hercules.
  6. With tenders. Ask your buddies to tender your SOL please. I assure you the 5th rates will stay away most of the time.
  7. There are naught. SOLs, not counting 74 gunners, would show up for the fleet actions or big squadron actions. They cost a lot to send out. They weren't OW pleasure cruises IRL. They were built for a purpose and it wasn't to sail around goofing with OW little squadrons.
  8. No, leave DD as is until it is reworked in order to, in a thousand battles have one that emulate this http://forum.game-labs.net/topic/26578-trader-with-a-rover-heart/
  9. On Logoff action "Do you want to save the Actions Log ? Yes / No"
  10. That is great ! Thank you sir for your time gathering and organizing the data of your end of the stick. ( wish i had the knack for sheets, would be a great resource to finally write a captain's log )
  11. Especially for RoE. I agree. All equal please.
  12. ... does not ignore battle chat, yet. But anyone can discipline themselves to "ignore" chat, although it is not expected and you know how the saying goes in the Caribbean - "With Salt kills, with Salt dies."
  13. This is FALSE. Stop spreading FALSE information. Please ! 1v1, ealier on https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198184764970/screenshot/943956721788661513
  14. There's plenty of invasion ( rvr ) fleets that got caught in gales and heavy weather at the end of the journey. If 2 are not enough we can go through and find enough. Again my concerns are several, albeit voting Yes. 1. Transition from OW to PB must be credible. 2. if fps decay is no concern 3. fog of war in minimap Two of those must exist for the idea to be interesting enough.
  15. Glad you ask... I think it is time to Lock this one up. Make a proper Roleplaying thread without any Real Life smartass remarks - everyone!. Simple solutions to non existent problems.
  16. F11 'ed this situation. report ref. NAB-82080
  17. That's the hard part. Usually clouded by "rage and tears and global chat salt and forum posts about op and p2w and whatnot".
  18. What is the predicted FPS performance hit, if any ?
  19. Does... "You should surrender. Save of your crewmen lives, Sir." count ?
  20. I did pay and still haven't won... wth is happening here... 😞
  21. You noted that modules/knowledge are undergoing development, correct ?
  22. I agree, repairs are definitely too lightweight and they occupy volumes of hold space. This, of course, would affect all vessels but a ship with a limited hold would be the most "logistically" affected.
  23. Why ? Because of sailing characteristics ? Because of modules and books ? Why ?
  24. Tested mine in a Bermuda Teak trade raider fashion - no knowledge slots, can't remember the modules but think I put mostly tackles and reload based stuff. Used the cannons, no carronades. She performed admirably against Endy, Trinc and Santi, as flagship with a squadron of schooners. Loss of the Diana versus Trinc and Endy. She is not a close hauler but she will hold her own, given not many mistakes made, against similar and maybe heavier frigates without having to resort to hugging metas. She is a bit of a straight slab but has great authority on her foremast. Probably the feature that struck me the most. But given it was only that one battle it becomes hard to judge, but i was fairly impressed on a good way.
